NO. 47 CHICAGO MINISTER BRANDS NEWSPAPER REPORT AS FALSE Chicago, Ill., Feb. 3rd.—"If I did not brand that manly thrust and very unkind cut aimed at me in The Chicago Defender a few days ago, I would consider myself unworthy of the position I hold as pastor of the proud Salem Baptist church, and unworthy of the call to the gospel ministry which I have received. Hence, I most emphatically state that the entire article is false, and is not only false, but libelous and is a direct insult to the ministry of the city", said Dr. J. E. Haywood, the pastor of the Salem Baptist church, corner 30 and LaSalle streets. After he had been shown a copy of The Defender, which purported that the Doctor had objected to a funeral of H. Franklin, a member of the K. of P., on account of the funeral having been on a rally day, Dr. Heywood makes the following statement: "The funeral of Mr. H. Franklin was to have taken place at R. Green's Undertaking establishment, and when I arrived there at 2:00 P. M. Sunday Jan. 19th (the hour arranged for the funeral), they were on their way to the church. I hastened back, knowing that it was my rally day and it would cause a conflict, as I had services at three o'clock. I gave them about twenty minutes for the funeral, which I preached in a very respectable way, knowing all the time that some one that had no authority to do such a thing had changed the plans, and because I spoke of it from the pulpit, I am being branded as treating my members bad. "He was not a member of the Salem Baptist church. I am too broad-minded and too much of a Christian to do anything like what was stated in the item, so I wish to rectify the mistake, as all of the different Orders have turned out at the Salem Baptist church and I appreciate that fact. Before I would have it said that I would treat any one the way that it was stated in the item, I would suffer my tongle to cleave to the roof of my mouth and ask that my right hand forget her cunning." "REV. J. E. HEYWOOD." "151 West 30th Street, Chicago, Ill." The Modern Barber Knows How to Get the Money By Harvey E. Westgate Time was when a barber—and even a baldheaded barber at that—would try to sell hair restorer to a man with a shiny pate. But that time has gone by. Not that the modern barber does not get the money, for he does, but he goes about it in a different way—a modern way. Years ago the tonsorial artist waited until it was too late for hair restorer, before trying to sell his wares, but now he grabs time by the forelock, so to speak, and starts telling about the virtues of a certain tonic when the first hairs begin to fall. And he points to his own head as a horrible example—if he happens to be bald—of the danger of waiting too long. Whereas, if he happens to have heavy locks, he shows just what the tonic will do when used in time. And he makes it work, too. (Meaning by this that he makes sales, plenty of them). But the modern barber does more than sell tonic for the hair. The safety razor has gouged great holes in his business, and he has had to devise various ways of filling them up. And he does it thusly: Hair singe, 25 or 50 cents (according to whether you happen to be in a cheap shop, or one where the management puts on airs, has a blond manicurist or two, and applies several hot towels to your face). Massage, 35 cents, if by hand. Half a dollar if a new fangled electrical machine is trotted out. Peroxide bleach, 50 cents. (This is recommended for everything from freckles to Atlantic City sunburn.) Removing moles, anywhere from 25c cents to $1 a mole. Headcase, 15 cents Billion Dollar Bill Guarantee to Wheat Growers Denounced Washington, Feb. 11.—L. F. Gates of the Chicago Board of Trade, today told the House Agricultural Committee that he regarded the $1,250,000,000 bill to guarantee wheat prices to the farmers of the country as a piece of "vicious legislation." It is so vicious that if the business interests possessed full knowledge of its character or had an idea that it was likely to pass Congress in its present form, the temporary buildings erected near the capitol would not be large enough to accommodate the men from every part of the country who would camp here to protest it, said Gates. The bill was drafted by William A. Glascow of the food administration and has been submitted to the chairmen of the Senate and House Agricultural Committees. Shampoo, 35 cents. With ranch eggs, half a dollar. And so on, and so forth. Nothing less than ten cents, and as high as you care to go. In fact it's a no-limit game. And while you are being introduced to the mysteries of the modern barber shop, a boy will polish your shoes for a dime, while a manicurist polishes your nails and holds your hand in her loving embrace, at 50 cents an embrace, or 50 cents a polish, if you prefer to reckon it that way. Yes, indeed! The safety razor has knocked the barber out of many a dime, but while it has been doing it the modern barber has been busy thinking up ways and means to extract many a dollar from his customer's pocket. And the modern barber is wiser than the old fashioned barber, in other ways. He is a deep student of human nature. Just watch him and see for yourself. Comes to his chair a surly, crabbed old codger, who says what he thinks, blurs out what he wants, and sits down. Says it just as if he wanted a shave and no more, with the emphasis on the last two words. And that's all he gets, too. No suggesting. No intimating that his hair is getting bushy. And not even an intimation that he might like a massage. No, sir! Oh, he's a wise old owl, is the modern barber! But watch him when he lights on a customer who looks like ready money—a dressy young guy, with a big jingle in his pocket, and all perfumed up as through he were just starting on a courting trip. And what does he get? Well, if he is susceptible to suggestion he gets the limit, which means everything from a shave to penciled eyebrows; from a shine and massage to a manicure. And before he leaves the chair the barber has patted his cheeks, and rubbed on tonic, and perfume, and toilet water, and powder, until his face looks as sweet and dolled up as that of a chorus girl. In short, you've simply got to hand it to the modern barber. He's wise. And he gets the money. And, although most of us keep a safety razor in the house to make believe we are economizing, and actually use it occasionally, we endure the modern barber several times a week, even if we don't approve of all of his methods for getting our money. SO WATCHED ROLL ALL NIGHT Camp Sherman, Feb. 10.—Three horse buyers from West Virginia arrived at a Chillicothe hotel with $3,000 in cash to attend the Government horse and mule sale. "Beds and cots are all full," said the hotel proprietor, "but I can fix you up with a mattress in one of the halls." "All right," said the spokesman, "but what shall we do with this roll of long green." "Give it to the clerk and he will put it in the safe," said the proprietor. The West Virginians asked about the reliability of the clerk and then withdrew to consult. They decided to sleep by "tricks." Two slept while the third watched the money. United Drive for Relf, February 10-17. ARIZONA'S GREATEST WEEKLY PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1919 WAKE UP AND GET IN THE GAME IF YOU WANT ARIZONA TO WIN Returns received today at state headquarters of the United Drive for Relief in the Near East make it extremely doubtful whether Arizona is going over the top in this movement. Despite the early prospects of success, very discouraging reports have been received from all but one or two counties. "Wake up" is the gist of a telegram which has just been sent out from headquarters to all workers, urging them to do their utmost during the remaining days of the campaign to bring in the funds which are so urgently needed. "Arizona can ill afford to fall down in this work," declared State Chairman David Goldberg. "One hundred and fifty thousand dollars which Arizona is asked to raise is a pitably small amount when one considers the fact that millions of men, women and children are on the verge of starvation, and that their only hope of relief is from America. "It would, indeed, be discouraging if Arizona does not do her share in this great altruistic movement. The apathy which has been shown in some quarters is deplorable in the extreme, and my only hope lies in the results which may be achieved in the latter days of relief week. "Let every one put forth just a little effort, make just a little sacrifice that the full amount of our quota may be raised. The most abject poverty in America is a luxury when compared to the unparalleled destitution in Armenia, Syria and Asia Minor. Imagine going down the streets of your town—if there was a town left—and seeing your neighbor's little children eating out of a garbage pail, and farther on a mother sitting before the bodies of her children who had died a slow death from underfeeding. In the next block men fighting over the carcass of a dead horse, to get the first meal they would have for some days. A few steps ahead, a heap of ashes which used to be your own home. These are the conditions your money will help to alleviate. Are you going to remain impassive to such dire distress?" $15,000 Worth of Booze Found In Hay Shipment Nashville, Tenn., Feb. 10.—There is sorrow among booshevicks down in Georgia today. Local detectives halted a livestock car containing eleven scrawny horses and an insignificant amount of hay consigned from "somewhere" in Illinois to Atlanta, Ga. Concealed under the hay was $15,000 worth of whiskey, the largest haul made by the police in several months. The horses were sent on to Georgia, but the whisky was not. The caretaker fled upon approach of the officers. BEFORE TEXAS LEGISLATURE Galveston, Tex., Feb. 10.—Mrs. Louise A. Pinkney, president of the Colored Women's Progressive Club and leading social worker of Galveston, left Monday night for Austin, where she will head a Committee of Colored women to petition the Texas legislature to establish an industrial institute for colored girls in some small town in Texas. The Colored Women's Federated Clubs of Texas are behind this movement. Mrs. L. Adams of Beaumont, Texas, is state president and Mrs. L. A. Pinkney is chairman of the legislature committee. STRONG SENTIMENT IN FAVOR OF AFRICAN REPUBLIC London.—A dispatch from Johannesburg reports that a great conference of Nationalists has been held at Bloemfontaine, avowedly to promote the cause of the independence of South Africa. General Hertzog and other Dutch leaders spoke strongly in favor of a republic. WHY DON'T YOU GO TO CHURCH SUNDAY? 1. Don't question the sincerity of all churches and church going people. It reflects too seriously on yourself. 2. Don't say, "If the preachers would start something more interesting, I would go to church." If you really cared to go, like others, you would think it interesting enough. 3. Don't argue that the churches want nothing but your money. They have never gotten any of yours, and those who do give never complain. 4. Don't find fault with the churches for not helping the poor, when you with hundreds of others, give all your money to the support of fraternal orders, etc., and nothing to the churches. 5. Don't get the notion that church members should come to see you and pet and beg you to come to church. At the judgment you will wish you had been a volunteer. 6. Don't force your children to go to Sunday School and chruch while you lounge at home or loaf the streets. Your example is the thing your children are considering. 7. Don't complain that no one spoke to you the day you did go to a certain church, when you stood there for half a minute as indifferent as a post and then shot out the door and didn't offer to speak yourself. 8. Don't decide to keep your membership in the old home church because pa and ma and Aunt Jane are buried there. You are supposed to have joined the army of the King of Kings and not the graveyard. 9. Don't think that the preachers and churches hate you because of your sinful life, because when all the world besides is dead in slumbers, these may be found praying for mercy upon you. 10. Don't offer any more excuses for not going to church. Just confess that you don't want to go, if you don't. You don't have to go. God is giving every man his choice, that is the reason He had to make a Hell. VICTORY LIBERTY LOAN IN APRIL "The coming Victory Liberty Loan will be the last," was the advice received from Washington by Chairman Henry S. McKee of the Southern California Liberty Loan State Committee. The advice continued, "there is one more big job to do and that is to pay for the victory that is ours, and then Liberty Loans will be history only. "The interest to be paid by the Victory Liberty Bonds to be issued in April, is not known. The interest part of the bonds should be the last item considered. Our boys in France, when duty called, did not stop and ask the commander what bonus they would get if they won the objective, nor did they ask for a guarantee against loss. The government and their people called for action and they acted. The Victory Loan is the last call for action from the American people and they will act and the interest will be the least consideration." MILLIONAIRE MAYOR TO REFORM DETROIT Detroit, Mich.—Detroit now has a millionaire reform mayor in complete working order. James Couzens, recently installed as running the city without the aid or mayor, has declared his intention or consent of politicians. He has put his personal secretary in charge of the prison board, placed a prominent physician in charge of the police department, and has declined to pass out any plums to deserving politicians. The new millionaire mayor says he can make Detroit a model municipality. INFLUENZA CURE KILLS Moundsville, W. Va.—Ye Yonge, a Chinaman, died today after sleeping more than a week. Yonge was under the influence of a powerful drug, alleged to have been administered by his brother, as a cure for influenza. Make your creed of universal bro hood a cash order Feb. 10-17. 13-YEAR OLD BOY WEARS WOUND STRIPE Was Wounded at Chateau-Thierry By A Shrapnel and Afterwards Gassed Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 4.—Thomas Gray, thirteen, Negro, scarcely out of the picaninny class, was detained in Atlanta on his way from Aniston, Ala., to Richmond, Va., to explain why he wore the insignia of the Dixie division on his shoulder, two wound stripes and a gold stripe, indicating six month's service in the trenches on his arm and a trench cap jauntily set on his head. "I am wearing these two wound stripes," said Gray, who is as black as the proverbial ace of spades, "because I was wounded in the knee at Chateau-Thierry by a fragment of German shrapnel and because later I was gassed. Our unit was in the front line trenches. When all but the captain and I had been wiped out in a pillbox the captain and I worked the machine gun until the Yanks came up." The little Negro's story was fully substantiated by Lieutenant Hewitt and the "mascot" was sent on to Richmond. TWELVE YEAR OLD GIRL IS VICTIM OF CRIMINAL ASSAULT Dade City, Fla.—Yesterday Sheriff Hudson arrested and placed in jail here Rube A. Fillmon, a white man of near Zephyrhills, charged with having criminally assaulted a twelve-year-old Negro girl near Lumberton. It is alleged that Fillmon went to two or three different Negro families at Lumberton, claiming that his wife was about to be confined and he wanted a girl of the house to go and do housework. When the mother of the alleged victim declared that her girl was too young to help in such a case, Fillmon is said to have told her that he had a midwife, and wanted the girl to look after the children and the cooking. Then her mother consented for her to go, and the child's story is that when she arrived with Fillmon at his house, there was no other person there and the girl inquired as to where his wife was. He is alleged to have told her then that he had no wife, and that she was the only wife he needed, and then drew his gun and made her submit to him and promise not to tell. He then returned her to within a short distance of her home and left her. She immediately told her mother, and as soon as her father returned from work they consulted with white people and were advised to procure a warrant for Fillmon's arrest. When Fillmon was arrested, it was found that he had been shot in the leg, and that he was badly wounded about the head. He claimed that his brother had accidentally shot him and that he fell upon the steps and hurt his head; but it was found, later, that his brother, too, was suffering from wounds made with a knife. It is not supposed that the latter affair had anything to do with the former, but the officials have not been able to fathom the mystery surrounding the shooting and cutting scrape. Fillmon is today suffering considerably from the wound in his leg. WOMAN ENTERS FIELD FOR MAYOR OF CHICAGO Chicago, Feb. 10. — Chicago can have a lady mayor if it likes. Mrs. Lenora Z. Meder, lawyer, today gave the city its chance. "I haven't a machine back of me, but the people are for me," Mrs. Meder said in announcing her candidacy for the executive office. Club women and men who have met her on an equal basis in business will support her, she predicted. "Rescue the perishing" by sacrificing just a little, February 10-17. League of Nations Would Force United States to Intervene in Mexican Affairs Chicago.—That the League of Nations would not prevent wars, but that its formation would force the United States to war on Mexico was the position taken today by Professor Theodore Soares of the University of Chicago. "The League will lessen the probability of war but not prevent it. In disciplining unruly nations and in enforcing an international police policy it will be necessary now and then to go to war. America will be told to intervene in Mexico and that will mean war." SAYINGS OF MRS. SOLOMON Being the Confessions of the Sever Hundredth Wife Concerning Seven Ways to Extract Money From Go to, thou Simple One! Hast thou not yet learned the wiles of a Wife and the subtle ways of a Married Woman? For lo, there be Seven Ways to extract money from a husband. And the first of these is the way of the Tyro, who ariseth while it is yet dark and goeth through his POCKETS, like a thief in the night. And the second is the way of the highwaywoman, who "holdeth up her Spouse upon Saturday night and taketh his pay envelope AWAY from him, and thereafter doleth it out to him in pennies. Yet, as the weekly instalment collector, she pounceth upon him and maketh him stand and deliver! And the third is the way of the "Confidence Woman," who lureth her Beloved to "go shopping" with her and selecteth the PRETTIEST shopgirl to wait upon her. An behold, when those two have finished with him he hath not a shekel left wherewith to pay his carfare home! And the fourth is the way of the Siren, who enticeth his shekels from him with smiles and flattery, saying: "Beloved, as THY wife I must have thus and so, that I may do thee credit before other men's wives. For the spouse of a man of IMPORTANCE hath his reputation to consider. And I am SO proud of thee!" And the fifth is the way of the Artful Dodger, who deceiveth him with padded accounts and false bills and secret treaties with the grocer and the butcher and the dairyman. And the sixth is the way of the Clinging Vine, who coaxeth his money from him with cooings and kisses and baby-talk, saying: "Oh, how noble and generous art thou to me, a helpless little thing! Yea, how blessed I am among women that I have not a STINGY husband, nor a Tightwad, but one who granteth my every WISH." And the seventh is the way of the gentle Blackmailer, who capitalizeth her Husband's little failings and tradeth upon his foibles and weaknesses. Lo, when he stoppeth at the corner cafe for "another," when he gazeth too long upon the blonde at the next table, when he droppeth his cigar ashes upon the rugs, when he is half an hour late for dinner, THEN doth she see her opportunity and grasp it. Yea, then doth she raise up her voice in bitter complaining and cover him with weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth. And until he "cometh across" with a BRIBE she cannot be comforted, neither silenced. And all her jewels are the wages of his "sins" and the price of his follies. For no man hesitateth to pay "hush money" to his own WIFE and a Husband's motto is, "Peace at ANY price!" Go to, my Daughter! Come not unto ME, saying: "Why are women so guileful and men so simple?" For, alas! I know not. Yet it doth appear that a man preferreth to be jollied and deceived and grafted upon rather than make an honest "business contract" of marriage. And the kinder a husband's heart the more he delighteth to play "Santa Claus!" Verily, verily, the last way for a woman to get anything out of a man, ATED COLORED SOLDIERS FIRST TO REACH GERMAN SOIL The 369th infantry (colored), that is expected to arrive in New York from Brest on board the Stockholm Sunday or Monday, under command of Col. William Hayward, never lost a prisoner, trench or a foot of ground in aservice of nearly a year on French soil, according to information made public yesterday by Major Lorillard Spencer. The 369th, the first Negro regiment to go into active service on the firing line, landed at Brest on December 27, 1917. In April, 1918, after initiation to fire in the Champagne district, the 369th held 20 per cent of all the ground held by the American army, although numerically less than 1 one per cent of that army. The regiment was decorated by the French authorities for operations in the offensive of September and October, 1918. More than one hundred officers and enlisted men received the decoration of the Legion of Honor or the Croix de Guerre for exceptional gallantry in action. Marching as an advance guard of the 161st Division of the Second French army, the 369th was the first unit of all the allied armies to reach the Rhine after the signing of the armistice. The regiment had 191 days in front-line trenches and in battle, which is believed to be a record among American units. CLEVELAND BOY MAR- RIES FRENCH GIRL BREST, France.—Ed P. Nicks, first-class private in one of the Colored labor units here, and whose home is 2507 Scovill avenue, Cleveland, Ohio, finds himself in a rather embarrassing position. Ed recently married a fascinating little French girl, and he labored under the belief that, when married, he could live with his wife and outside the government's reservation. He now discovers that he must continue to occupy a bunk in the camp barracks, while his wife, as before, must be far removed from him in her room in town. Furthermore, it is surmised that when Ed prepara to return home, it may be difficult for his wife to secure a French passport to sail, for the French, short of man and woman-power, are not indiscriminately issuing passports to natives to leave the country. While Ed Nicks has married a French girl, he is separated from her through rigorous army rules, as if they were divorced. 100,000 DISCHARGED COLORED SOLDIERS IN CHICAGO WASHINGTON, D. C.-The Secretary of War is considering demobilizing the soldiers through draft boards just as they were mobilized. It is claimed this is necessary as charged soldiers are not returning to their home towns, but are congregating in cities. An example is cited in which it is claimed 100,000 colored discharged troops from Middle West camps have drifted into Chicago, thereby creating a serious labor, social and criminal problem. EMMA, THAT'S ALL MACON, Ga.—"All I knows, Jedge, is dat I calls her Emma," replied Robert Lockett, Colored, applying to the ordinary's office for a marriage license on being asked for the name of the bride-to-be. When told it would be necessary to have the full name of the woman, Lockett hastened away to learn the rest of her name. Subject peoples cannot obtain government loans. That's why we in America must help them February 10-17. from love to money, is to ASK him for it! Yet he lifteth his voice to heaven, crying: "WHY are women so deceitful?"

This fact becomes more and more discernable as the days go by.

But when it comes to a broad-gaged, full-fledged LEADER, we are frank to say that such a person has not appeared on the publicity horizon of colored Phoenix. No thoughtful person can fail to see the necessity for an able leader. We have failed to receive proper recognition in this city, and in the county for no other reason than the lack of a capable, efficient leader. The time has come when we must have a leader. The occasion demands it; but where is the man? The first requisite of a leader is that he should be QUALIFIED; that is, he should have sufficient intellectual training to hold his own no matter where he may have occasion to cast his lot. In other words he should be prepared to meet the issue squarely. Next, he should have "intensity of purpose," and not be a mere question mark in dealing with matters and problems affecting the race. This is not time for spineless leaders, who have the name but nothing more. If a man has not the courage and backbone to be a fearless leader who is not afraid to champion the cause of his race, we don't need him, no matter how wealthy he is, or what profession he may be. If leadership were rated by the amount of wealth a man has, Rockefeller and a few other magnates would be at the forefront of American leadership. But in this country with all its millionaires and professional lights, the cloak of leadership fell on an humble schoolmaster. There is much for a wise leader to do here in Phoenix. Economic problems, labor problems, securing justice for the race, employment of returned soldiers, impartiality in the courts and numerous reforms are among the things a REAL LEADER should not hesitate to champion.

Our returning soldiers, the girls and women taking positions formerly closed to their sex, young folks just out of school, munion plant workers returning to peace-time employment—all these are making a fresh start. All are hoping for business success and looking for chances for advancement. It is a timely topic for newspaper discussion, to inquire why it is that some people attain large business success, while so many others secure only moderate attainment, or are buffeted from failure to failure. Many people say it is all luck. One man, they say, by no merit of his own, had fine opportunities thrust in his face. Someone opened a door in front of him. All he had to do was to walk in. Anyone could do it with the same chance. In so far as people inherit money, or gain positions through family influence, that is true. Yet the great majority of successful men did not have wealthy parents. If they found opportunities, it was because they had the energy to force themselves into situations where opportunities open. If a big business concern has an exceptional opportunity to offer, it does not snap up a cent to see which office boy shall have it. It does not look around among the fellows who are doing the work requiring the least intelligence. Nor does it select the man most popular in society, who can tell the best stories and play the best pool game. But it does devote thoughtful scrutiny to the men of its force, to see who has previously shown the most initiative and power to do things, though in a small way. The man who gets it has earned it.

It also means that commercial, agricultural, and industrial affairs will stabilize, and that the Hun-inspired clamor will cease. We were advised that the war would last through 1919, probably through 1920, so we were prepared for that; to have done less would have been suicide. We prepared to crush the Hun on his own ground, and he prudently quit. It cost us some money but it saved the lives of half a million of our men. War money ever better spent? Now we have bills to pay, promises to make good, our men to bring home. This will take from five to six billion dollars. Let us get ready and raise it. A big task, but the last, and therefore easy. All together, shoulder to shoulder, and the loan goes over! The "Ninety-first" is the Pacific Coast Division; remember their achievement, and honor ourselves by living up to it.

If a district oversubscribes its War Savings Stamp quotas for the first two months of the year, its Victory Liberty Loan quota will be decreased to the extent of the oversubscription. Conversely, if a district fails to reach its January and February Stamp quotas, its Liberty Loan quota will be increased. When Lewis B. Franklin, director of the War Loan Organization, was in San Francisco recently, he revealed that on the day, the armistice was signed there was in progress in Washington a meeting to formulate plans for the continuous sale of Liberty Bonds—such a plan as governs the sale of Thrift and War Savings Stamps. Moreover, the Liberty Bond and War Stamps work was to be closely coordinated. These plans were immediately discarded when the Germans signed the armistice and when Secretary of the Treasury Glass took office he announced that the Victory Liberty Loan would be the last. In the face of suggestions that the Victory Loan be put on a cold commercial basis, he added that the men making these suggestions were discounting the patriotism of the American people and he would depend upon the patriotism of the American people rather than place securities of the United States government upon a plane with the paper of private corporations.

The southern men were proud of the manner in which the Negro Soldiers of the south guarded the Hun prisoners. “There wasn't a single chance in the world for a prisoner to get away as long as a Georgia Negro, equipped with a bayonet, was on the job,” said one of the Savannah men in the 117th. “The Negro guards made no bones about their desire to be given the opportunity of seeing what ‘sho nuff’ bayonet fighting felt like, and the German prisoners feared them worse ‘than they did anything on earth, When @ Georgia Negro guard ordered Fritzie, at the point of a bayonet, to ‘lif dat garbage can to dat wagon and show some speed,’ Fritz gave exhibi- tions of perfect obedience never wit- nessed by officers of the kaiser. “Three or four hundred Hun pris- oners were often assigned to a single guard and never one attempted to get away. In the first place they were well fed and housed and were much better off than they were in the German army, and in the second place they had a mortal dread of cold steel and a tremendous respect for ‘the Negro’s ability to use it. “While fearing the American Negro soldiers worse than they did the kat ser, the Fritzies were deeply inter etsed in the singing of the colored -roops. When a file of singing col. ored soldiers marched by where the Hun prisoners were working industry was suspended while the prisoners listened in amazement. “One of them expressed to me his intensq surprise that puch fighters could sing so beautifully.” By Rev. G. R. Kirby On last Friday evening the Sunday schol gave their pastor a great shower which was very acceptable. It was quite an interesting shower, the girls trying to outdo the boys. The girls finally won out. Mrs. Wm. Caldwell, who was con: valescing from an attack of flu, suf- fered a relapse. Rev. G. R. Kirby is confined to his home with a severe cold. Mrs. L. B.

On Cavalry as the hours dragged, Fom large, cruel nails thy body sagged; Yet in such agony, oh Lord, Thou.did give blessed comfort towar¢ One suffering soul, who with Thee died, He, who for sin, was crucified.

Washington St. Phoenix, Arizona, MESA By Mrs. Sarah M. Taylor Dear Editor:—So well pleased are we with the Phoenix Tribune, that we grow impatient waiting from one Saturday to another. We wish you could publish it twice a week, or better still—daily. Well, in the course of a year or two, if every colored person will give it their support, we shall receive news daily from the Negro press. When you reach that stage, I want to be a constant writer for the Tribune, as I never grow tired of writing and making mention of things worth while about people of my color. I am proud of the fact that I am an Ethiopian. Yes, indeed, and when I look back over the great distance we have come since our emancipation, the thought of our wonderful progress pleases me. We have advanced faster than any other race on the face of the earth. We have made this progress in the face of great difficulties. Not only have we had to battle against the prejudices of other races, but in many instances we have been forced to fight this evil among our own people—our brothers, who should do everything to help lift up this downtrodden race. In spite of all this, I am proud to say "We're coming!" Yes, we're coming by leaps and bounds, and may God be praised for it. All that we are today, we owe it to our Creator, for it is through Him and by His power that we are privileged to rise. To Him, all praise is due. God has done great things for us, whereof we should be glad. He is still doing wonderful things for us, and he us not forget Him or forsake His ways Do you recall the instances in the late World's War when we colored women were forced to give up our loved ones to go over and fight for something that is denied them here at home? Our sons, our husbands, our brothers and our fathers, fought for democracy—a thing they cannot enjoy in this country. Yes, our loved ones were torn from us and our hearts were left bleeding and sad, but in the midst of all this, I'd say to the boys who left from our section, "Cheer up and trust God, for who knows but that He will bring this war to a close before many of you will have shed any blood?" He can make the dark way light and the rough way smooth, I would tell them, and God works all things together for good to them that love Him. Let us always put our trust in Him, for without Him and His help, we can do nothing. With Him and His divine assistance, we shall be able to surmount many obstacles. Why, one white gentleman stated that God must surely be a Negro, as He was partial to the Negro because the Negro was not having the "flu." Let me say right here, that we do not intend to try to argue what nationality or color God is, but one thing we do know and are thankful for and that is is: God is just and will bring every work into judgment with every secret art, whether good or evil. And too, He is partial, for aren't we told in the decalogue that: "I thy Lord am a jealous God, visiting the inquities of the fathers upon the children of the Tribune Rep Winslow..... Prescott.....

PAGE FOUR Box 1052 third and fourth generation of them that hate me, and showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments." Now, I do not say the Negro is any truer worshiper of God than other races, but I do know that the prayers of a faithful few have preserved us. Now, my dear colored women (particularly mothers), let us be true and noble; let us stand on our honor and integrity and prove to the world that we are honorable women. Let us hold our marriage vows sacred and be true wives and mothers so that our husbands and this rising generation will stand up and call us "blessed." Let us fstill in the hearts and minds of our daughters, yes and sons too, the principles of purity, virtue and love for God and their race. Again I say our "sons too," because so many of us take infinite pains with our girls and allow our boys to "grow up" just any old way. I have tried to rear my sons up just as true and pure as my daughters. I want my boys to be just as good and true as my girls, because if our men and boys are of noble and pure character, our women and girls can't be otherwise. So, dear mothers, let us take a new determination and resolve in the future to more pains, especially with our boys. A mother can wield great influence over the lives of her offspring and really, I believe, it is she who shapes the destinites of the future generations. "Tis truly said: "The hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that rules the world." Let us not neglect the proper training of our boys and girls in the home—around the fireside. Let us give them a good religious education. I say "religious" education, because that's the kind of education which is the best and chief defense of nations. Now, let us do our full duty so that when we are gone we shall leave behind us true sons and daughters, instilled with the sublime principles of purity and love to their God and for their fellowmen. MRS. SARAH M. TAYLOR. The entertainment given at the Mt. Calvary Baptist church was a grand affair. We had a variety of refreshments that tickled the palates of all and everything was consumed. The youngsters enjoyed the game of "Who can pin the donkey's tail on." Miss Louhellen Taylor was the lucky girl. She succeeded in pinning the donkey's tail on three times in succession and thereby won the three prizes, which consisted of a 25c piece for each performance. The proceeds of the entertainment will go to swell the treasury of the church. Mesa is sadly in need of some kind of fraternal organization or some kind of society that will work for the uplift of the yunger people. I suggest a literary society or glee club for the young men or perhaps a singing class for all would be out of place. We have plenty of material here and there is no reason for not having an organization of some kind. Among some of the intelligent members of the race we have that could be used in so many ways to build up Mesa are: Mr. Powell, Lonnie and Alvin Taylor, Mr. resentatives Mrs. M. N. Young Mrs. Dora Rose Mr. Reginald Jackson Mrs. W. E. Youngblood Mrs. Helen H. Vance Rev. W. M. Green Rev. G. R. Kirby Mrs. E. E. Rainwater Miss Myrtle Threat Mrs. Wm. Young Mr. S. L. Daniels Rev. Major Jones Mrs. Jack Gray Mr. Wm. Mabry Mrs. Edna M. Adams Mr. Archie Lewis Mrs. Parlea Spriggs Rev. S. E. Newell Handle The Tribune And Day to All Workers Tribune Phoenix, Ariz. Social Happenings Phoenix, Ariz. Felton Davis, Mr. Chester Morris, Mr. S. L. Daniels and a number of others that are married, but would be glad to take part in anything uplifting. Among the ladies are Misses Lucy and Susie McPherson, Joanna and Louhellen Taylor, Vera and Loany Moore, Mrs. Clara Morris, Miss Ruth Lockett, Miss Wanetta Harris and many others who would gladly assist. Mr. Joe Davis recently returned from Berwyn, Okla., has erected a nice little house near Mr. and Mrs. Jack Lewis (Mrs. Davis' niece) and will move into it today. GLOBE-MIAMI (By Mrs. Wm. Young) I received the bundle of papers you sent and they went like hot cakes. Enclosed find money for papers and two subscriptions. Rev. Z. Z. Johnson, presiding elder of the C. M. E. church, paid us a short visit last week and preached at the A. M. E. church. With one exception, his entire congregation was composed of Baptists. Miss Louhellen Taylor, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Judge Taylor on South Hobson street, died very suddenly Saturday night, Feb. 8. Miss Taylor was only 13 years old and heart trouble is said to be the cause of her death. The remains were laid to rest last Sunday in the Mesa cemetery. She leaves a mother, father, four brothers and six sisters to mourn her passing. Rev. C. A. Gilmore officiated. Our sympathy goes out to the bereaved relatives in this, their sad hour. Mr. Andrew Calbert of Berwyn, Oklahoma, is a recent arrival in Mesa. He is a cousin of Mrs. Judge Taylor and after looking over the valley, he may locate in this community. RAY By Mr. Archie Lewis Mr. Reuben Reed, who suffered a broken hip in an auto accident last March, has recovered completely and will return to work soon. James Coleman has purchased a four-room bungalow, completely furnished, and is now busy moving into it. James says that his next move will be to advertise in the Tribune for a wife to share this cozy little cottage with him. Come right along with your ad, James, as the Tribune guarantees results. Mrs. A. Bueford has been indisposed the past week, but is now convalescent. Mr. and Mrs. A. Smith will open a first class cafe in Kelvin real soon. Watch for opening announcement. Mr. and Mrs. Judge Miller left last week for Flagstaff where they will make their future home. Mr. Lewis Hudson left last week for Phoenix, where he will join his family. Lonnie Harris has been transferred from the Ray Con machine shops to the position of head painter at the company's office buildings. Mrs. Burch is now residing in the Miller home. Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Lewis have moved into their new home in Sunny Side. Their cottage is a beautiful pebble-dash structure, built on the mission style. It is one of the finest, if not the finest home in Sunny Side. Mr. and Mrs. L. H. Harris' new 4-room bungalow in Sunnyside is nearly completed and they will soon be moving in. J. J. McDonald and Wm. Barnell are tearing down their houses preparatory to moving over on the "Sunny Side." Pat Rivers and Abe Bueford motored to Hayden last Sunday. Mr. B. B. Moore is cutting quite a "dash" among the ladies of the camp. Oh, you Beau Brummel! PRESGOTT (By Mrs. Dora Rose) Mrs. Paris Tabron was quite ill last Friday, but is now convalescing. Mrs. L. J. Harris is expecting her mother, Mrs. J. P. Watson, this week. The people of Prescott are planning to give the returned soldiers a swell banquet on Friday night. Mrs. Mary Carter entertained at dinner on last Sunday. Mrs. Oliver Bess entertained with a whist party on last Wednesday evening. Mr. N. C. Elhoy, who is stationed at Whipple Barracks, made a flying trip to Phoenix while on a furlough. Mr. William Page is in receipt of a letter from Mr. Johnnie Clemons, who is overseas, stating that he is well and expects to return home soon. Mr. Clemons states that he saw Mr. Gillard and Mr. Pope, and that both of them are well. Mrs. Harris McKelvin of Augusta, Ga., is a recent arrival in Prescott. She is a sister of Mrs. William Page and expects to locate here. YUMA (By Mrs. E. E. Rainwater) Mrs. Martha Chisom was hostess Sunday at a delightful dinner party given in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Gibson of the Twenty-fifth infantry and Mrs. Roberta Ellis. Miss M. M. Richardson of Phoenix was pleased to find her sister, Mrs. Roberta Ellis, well on the road to recovery. Miss Richardson returned to Phoenix Friday morning. Mrs. V. Sims, who has been very ill at the residence of Mrs. John Willis, is reported convalescent. Mr. M. C. Gainer of Lyndle, Utah, wishes the Tribune sent to his new address. He says the Tribune keeps him from getting lonesome. GLOBE--MIAMI (By Mrs. Wm. Young) I received the bundle of papers you sent and they went like hot cakes. Enclosed find money for papers and two subscriptions. Rev, Z. Z. Johnson, presiding elder of the C. M. E. church, paid us a short visit last week and preached at the A. M. E. church. With one exception, his entire congregation was composed of Baptists. Mr. C. Stewart is reported very ill at his home in this city. Mr. B. Taylor is threatened with a general breakdown. His doctor has advised him to take a good rest. Mr. and Mrs. Taylor are planning to take a long trip in the very near future. We are pleased to have Mrs. Cora Fry and her niece, Miss Ruth Price, again in our midst. They have both joined the Baptist church. All old timers here know what an ardent worker Mrs. Fry is. She is termed a real live wire in the Baptist church. Misa Price suffered a slight burn last week, but is doing nicely at present. Mr. Alvin Booth was glad to meet his daughter and niece, who arrived in Globe recently. We are pleased to report the flu bar lifted here and in Miami. On last Wednesday evening we had a glorious time at St. John's Baptist church. This was the first meeting we have had in three weeks. Again on Sunday night we had a large congregation. Rev. William Young, the pastor, took his text from Peter, fourth chapter, seventeenth verse: "What shall the end be of them that obey not the Gospel of God?" Several visitors from Miami were in Globe last Sunday. Among them were Mrs. A. M. Hawkins, Mrs. Ray, Mrs. Bates, Rev. W. F. Watkins and wife, M. C. Watkins and family, Mrs. Dixie Leonard, Mrs. Simmons, Mrs. Stewart, Mr. and Mrs. Alburto. Mt. View Chapter, No. 14, O. E. S., will meet Thursday night. All visiting sisters cordially invited. Mrs. William Young, W. M.; Miss Susie Frazier, secretary. Worshipful Master Mr. B. Taylor of Golden Billow Lodge No. 447, F. and A. M., requests the presence of all brethren at a meeting to be held on Thursday night. Business of great importance will come before the body and a full attendance is desired. Mrs. B.

Coleman, Miss Carrie Tolbert, Rev. and Mrs. William Young. All present spent an enjoyable evening and were loud in their praise of Mrs. Taylor's wonderful dinner. I, Mrs. W. M. Young, do hereby serve notice on the colored people of Globe and Miami district that I am up from the flu and again on the job. I shall expect every man and woman in Globe and Miami, who are not now subscribers to the Phoenix Tribune, to subscribe for this excellent paper through your representative here. Mr. Editor, you may send 20 extra copies of the Tribune this week. EL PASO (By Rev. William Green Mt. Zion went over the top again last Sunday. Sunday school was well attended and Miss Estella Bennett, the assistant superintendent, conducted the school in grand style. Miss Pearl Shannon taught the senior class and Miss Elma Mathas took care of the card classes. The old reliable, Brother John J. Stevens, was also on duty. Mt. Zion always has a number of visitors. The 11 o'clock services were inspiring. The B. Y. P. U. opened promptly at 6 p. m., with President L. A. Turner in the chair, and Miss M. Simmons at her place, as usual. Miss Simmons never misses any services at Mt. Zion. She is one of Mt. Zion's best. The Sermon Sunday night has been the chief topic of discussion among members and friends of Mt. Zion Baptist church. "Some sermon," is the way it is spoken of generally. Collection, $12.70. Pastor Green is around here. If you don't believe it, ask Mrs. B. Porter. A delightful dinner was served at the parsonage by Mrs. H. D. Jackson and Mrs. L. Williams. Mrs. L. A. Turner, though ill, was present to help entertain the pastor's guests, Rev. C. H. Anderson, pastor of the Myrtle M. E. church; Rev. W. B. Butler, pastor of the C. M. E. church. Mrs. J. D. Moss and Miss Simmons were after-dinner callers. It is sad to look over this part of the country and see how so-called Christians, both men and women, are stirring up strife and confusion and to see how they are tearing at each other's throats. I sometimes wonder what God will do to them. No Christian should fight another Christian. We ask: "How can Christians go to war with each other when Christ has disarmed all Christians?" Ignorance is the cause of all this strife. Wherever you find ignorance you will surely find strife and confu- sion. God is opposed to ignorance. So, ye ministers of El Paso, why don't you visit each other and stop phoning so much? Why will ministers point at their pastors? They say they read and understand the Bible, still they go from one church to another and never attend their own. Something wrong somewhere. TUGSON (By Rev. S. E. Newell) The Delmonico Cafe has changed hands during the past few days. One person after another takes hold of this business and, finding themselves in the whirlpool of prosperity, soon reach the financial climax. Business at this place was first worked up by J. Redman Scale, an old and experienced restaurant man. He made in one year the amount of money he had hoped to make in three years. As he went out of business he let his mantle fall on Mesdames Jones and White. The business became so heavy until these ladies could not handle it, and they sold to Mr. Anthony Taylor. Mr. Taylor is an experienced chef and we feel certain of his success. The people are turning out in large numbers to both the Baptist and the Methodist churches this week, enjoying the lectures of Prince Kaba Rega, the noted African minister. We are always glad to welcome worthy men of God and bid them God speed. Miss Christina Jones is indisposed this week. The doctor says it is a light form of the flu. Mrs. Lizzie White is convalescing from a slight illness which has caused her to be confined to her hoem the past week. We are glad to report Mrs. Ben Thompson and Mrs. Mary Harris much improved. WINSLOW (By Mrs. M. N. Young) I love the Phoenix Tribune, A paper loyal and true, An enterprising medium Of interest to me and you. Yes, I love the Tribune and would not be without it. If you will only subscribe, you will learn more about it. The Social club met last Tuesday evening at the residence of Mr. T. R. Simpson. All report an enjoyable time. Mrs. Norman Yeager entertained with a 6 o'clock dinner on last Sunday evening. The guests were Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Lewis and family and Mr. and Mrs. J. N. Burkhardt. Mr. Ed Simpson was leader of a jolly whist party last Thursday evening. Rev. J. B. Bell, field missionary for Arizona and New Mexico, paid us a brief visit last week. We expect him to return again, just as soon as the weather becomes more favorable. Mr. Jones entertained Sunday with an oyster dinner. The guests were Mr. and Mrs. Yeager and Mr. and Mrs. Jones. Mrs. T. J. McCool and Mrs. T. R. Simpson suffered a slight form of ptomaine poisoning last Saturday, caused by ice cream. They are getting along nicely at present and no serious results are expected. BISBEE By Miss Myrtle Threat Mrs. Beulah Dockney of Fort Huachuca is here for a brief visit. A number of people from Naco visited this city last Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. J. O. Elam gave a party last week in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Victor of Naco. Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. John White, Mr. and Mrs. Jones, Mr. Richard Osborn, Mr. Tom Scott, Mr. and Mrs. L. Rappord, Mrs. P. Rouse, Mrs. Franswan, Mr. Maxwell, Mr. A. Russel, Mr. and Mrs. McHenry. Mr. Albert Birdette, father of Mrs. Jannie Washington of this city, died in San Diego. Mrs. Washington attended the funeral. AJO (By Rev. Major Jones) AJO Ajo is about at a standstill. Nearly everybody is expecting to leave or seeking different kind of employment. Men are being laid off and wages are being reduced because there is no demand for copper. We hope times will soon become normal again. Rev. James Robinson has been confined the past three or four days, suffering with an attack of la giripe. He is much improved at present and plans to leave Ajo as soon as he is able to travel. Last Sunday evening was indeed a typical spring evening in Ajo. Everybody seemed to enjoy themselves and the weather was very warm for this time of the year.
